Calculation of evaporation length of a liquid bridge flowing between inclined hot tubes

The bridge consists of liquid held by surface tension forces between two inclined tubes in an LNG heat exchanger. The shape of the bridge is calculated by the hydrostatic equation, which is reduced to a nonlinear integral equation and resolved by the Newton method. The velocity and temperature fields in the bridge are described by the Navier-Stokes and energy equations, respectively. They are reduced to the boundary integral equations and calculated by the method of boundary elements. Heat transfer coefficient is calculated for evaporating bridge and the length of total bridge evaporation is estimated.

Application of Numerical Methods for Research of Construction Design of Fastener Fractures

The work uses modern numerical methods of mechanics of a deformable solid to analyze the stress-strain state of orthopedic structures in order to improve them and improve the quality of treatment of patients. Among the many numerical methods, the attention of the authors was drawn to the finite element method and to the numerical and analytical method of boundary elements in the author's edition. Settlement models of both metal apparatuses and parts of a person’s arm with a fracture are constructed. The stress – strain state in various zones of the biomechanical system was calculated. It is shown that the numerical-analytical method of boundary elements allows obtaining more accurate results with fewer equations in the resolution system. It is noted that in the case of the considered biomechanical systems, its elements undergo tension – compression, shear, torsion, and bending. To consider them, solutions are presented for Cauchy problems, which are included in the general system of resolving equations of the MGE. It is shown that, unlike the FEM, the MGE simplifies the algorithm for calculating biomechanical systems. Comparison with the FEM results shows their good agreement, which proves the reliability of the calculation results of both methods.

Assessment of stratification of the breeds of the underground cavity roof

Authors of the research consider the approach to the assessment of possibility of formation of stratification and shift cracks in the roof of extended horizontal cavity, based on the method of boundary elements. The algorithm implements the iterative procedure of variation of the formed crack length with control of tension in its tip. At the same time, the angle of the crack coasts closing is defined by the tensile strength of the layer material. The crack with smooth closing of coasts is formed in case of equality to zero this durability. The mechanism of failure forming over the developed space with vertical pipe type walls is considered. The results received by the authors, can be useful as the offered approach allows to model the destructions localization in the massif of rocks, location and sizes of the arising cracks of stretching and shift if there are strength defects in the massif

The solution of the problem of free vibrations of a rectangular orthotropic plate by the methods of boundary and finite elements under any boundary conditions. Transformation of the two-dimensional differential equation of free vibrations of an orthotropic rectangular plate to one-dimensional. Determination of the complete system of its fundamental solutions using the numerical-analytical method of boundary elements. Implementation of the algorithm on the example of a specific plate and comparison with the results of finite element analysis in ANSYS. The solution to the problem of natural vibrations of a rectangular orthotropic plate is obtained without any restrictions on the nature of the fixing of its sides. A transcendental frequency equation is obtained whose roots give the full spectrum of natural frequencies. The modeling and calculations of the orthotropic plate by the finite element method are performed. An analysis of the numerical results obtained by the author's method shows a very good convergence with the results of finite element analysis. For a plate with rigid fastening of three sides with a free fourth side, the discrepancy is slightly higher than for a plate with a hinged support along the contour. Under both variants of the boundary conditions, the frequency spectrum calculated by the boundary element method is lower than in the finite element calculations. Analytical expressions of fundamental functions are obtained that correspond to all possible solutions to the differential equation of free oscillations. For the first time, a solution to the problem of free vibrations of a rectangular orthotropic plate is presented by the numerical-analytical method of boundary elements. The results allow us to solve the problem of free vibrations of a rectangular orthotropic plate by two methods under any boundary conditions, including inhomogeneous ones.

The solution of the plane problem of the theory of elasticity by the boundary elements method

An approach to solving the biharmonic equation of the plane problem of the theory of elasticity by the numerical-analytical method of boundary elements is developed. The reduction of the two-dimensional problem to the one-dimensional one was carried out by the KantorovichVlasov method. Systems of fundamental orthonormal functions and the Green function are constructed without any restrictions on the nature of the boundary conditions. A numerical example of solving a plane problem by the boundary element method for a rectangular plate is considered. The results are compared with the data of finite element analysis in the ANSYS program and those obtained by A.V. Aleksandrov.
